John Adams A Revolutionary Leader and First President
John Adams emerged as a key figure in American independence and governance. A Harvard student at twenty, he taught briefly, practiced law, argued for severing ties to Britain, and shaped the Revolution starting in 1760. He defended British soldiers after the Boston Massacre, chaired numerous committees, and seconded Richard Henry Lee’s independence resolution. He later helped secure the 1783 Peace Treaty, held posts in Europe, served as Washington's vice president, and became the United States first president occupying the White House in 1800. He died at ninety on the nation’s 50th anniversary, the same day Thomas Jefferson died.
